Roses and How to Grow them: A manual for growing roses in the garden ands under
glass, Published in 1910. "All that is really necessary for the amateur rose grower to know in order that he mayintelligently make a rose garden, select his varieties and grow the harvest of

A Book About Roses by S. Reynolds Hole, 1870. "I wrote A Book
about Roses, because having grown them lovingly and shown them successfully for more than twenty years, I

nine months after publication of the first, has realised my happiest hope.... will be found to contain the
latest information and intelligence as to the selection and cultivation of Roses.

National Rose Society's Handbook on Pruning Roses compiled by the committee
of the Society in 1906 with 80 pages. "The object kept in view by the committee of experts entrusted with its
preparation has been to make the instructions given as clear and easily understood as possible, so that even
those who have but little knowledge of Rose culture might be able to benefit by them. It is hoped that the
illustrations, so admirably drawn by Miss I. M. CHARTERS, under the direction of the Hon. Secretary and Mr. G.
L. PAUL, may serve to render those instructions still more intelligible."
